r/iPhone13Mini

Just an appreciation post to what I think is one of the best products Apple has released till date.
I got my first 13 mini white second hand last year and it ended up being iCloud locked because of this I switched back to my 14 pro. Something didn't sit right it was heavy with a case it was big and it made me consume media without a second thought.

Fast forward to December 2025 | had some extra cash and decided to get this green color which was the color I loved since it had released. I was lucky enough to find one still at ios 18. Been using this daily and no regrets whatsoever.

Looked around many places and finally found the leather case to my luck the green one and midnight which is dark blue. Now in the look out for an orange brown leather one because that is so beautiful.

Located in Canada and curious how much it is worth. Please write “USD” or “CAD”. It is the iPhone 13 Mini 512gb in product red, factory sealed. Hope this post is allowed. Thanks

Which iOS version offers the best SOT on the 13 mini, I noticed the latest iOS 26.4 offer great standby time. However, the SOT takes a hit. Offering only three and half hours of screen time, also the fact that using more than 2 apps simultaneously heats the phone up that I can use it to iron my t-shirt. My battery health on my 13 mini is at 95%

I am planning to downgrading to iOS 18.5, any help on which iOS version offers the best SOT, would be much appreciated.

Got the 256, Alpine green. Just a little scuff on the camera but boy is the phone gorgeous. My 11 feels like a pro max now when i hold i. Loving the 13mini.

There are a lot of people who uses iPhone mini that doesn't upgrade every year. It has now been 5 years since the last mini, and those minis on the market are due for an upgrade. i think it's a smart move for apple to refresh the mini to keep those customers. what do you think?

Asking because of curiosity

What. Type of material caused it?

Bought used. Apple replaced battery. Took phone to a water park. Didn’t survive but I just stashed it in a drawer. Was looking for something today and discovered a green spicy pillow. Ugh. What a shame. No cracks. 256gb.

QWERTY feels cramped on small phones.

But QWERTY mini's fewer, larger keys make typing easier with fewer typos.

What keyboard do you usually use on a small phone?

Really need to keep this phone alive as long as possible.

I wanted something flashy and new. My friends all have Pro, so I got that. After a week’s use, I’m making the return to Apple. My main gripe is I can’t reach the corner with my thumb, and that’s how many apps can be closed. The Pro was awkward to hold, and I kept feeling like I might drop it.

The mini was made for small hands. I love using my phone with one hand. Then I can have my coffee in the other!
